Now that you've gotten the garbage fishing line off the poor bird, does it look like he's recovering, or is he just waiting to die now?

Also, has Animal Control even offered the name and number of a rehab place to try and help the bird? Or do they not care at all?

 

She said it’s considered waterfowl they don’t really rehab. I think the best thing for it is to leave it let it rest. It’s in the shade on the left on its knees with its feet stretched out. It stood all day yesterday, until it came up to the house. It’s awake and alert. I don’t think they have nerves in there feet really, I’m sure it’s not in pain, just resting, toes stretched out.

 

Well I’m pretty sure it’s going to croak. It doesn’t look good. Mother Nature is cruel. It’s ok there’s a whole Crows Nest Park, Blue Heron rookery (group nests).

 

In honor of the Great Blue Heron I’ve attached some pics from Va Wildlife and artwork.

 

Aren't those the ones whose chick projectile vomit a disgusting, black, stinky, sticky, goo at anyone/anything that comes too close? I think I'd avoid the rookery like the plague!

 

No, it’s a badass bird prehistoric. And they have a kind of growl stork call that you hear a lot at night.

 

I was gonna measure its wingspan but I don’t think that fishing line killed it. I want to keep its skull but You cant even have a feather.

Note to self: wear gloves while raking.

 

Our photo clubs monthly theme was "broken", its been really snowy and crappy so I dug up some images from a few years back, I cant wait to get out and start shooting again

 

At one point in time I lost alot of these pics from some of my many hiking trips. Luckily I sent them to friends and got them back, the down side is the quality seemed to be lacking a bit after that.. blah, oh well

All taken be a Samsung phone through out the years
